May react with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas (H2) and heat. Incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. May react violently with aldehydes, HNO3, HNO3 + H2O2, and HClO4.

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: 1,4-Naphthoquinone (at 500 mg/kg soil) required 9 days for complete biodegradation in chernozem soil(1). 1,4-Naphthoquinone (at 1000 mg/kg soil) was 80% degraded within 22 days in a chernozem soil(2) and had a half-life of 1.2 days in soil in another study(3). 1,4-Naphthoquinone is oxidized in a standard biodegradability test utilizing a sewage inoculum, having a 5 day BOD of 38% of the theoretical value(4).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 0.6 was calculated for 1,4-naphthoquinone(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.71(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of 1,4-naphthoquinone can be estimated to be 16(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1,4-naphthoquinone is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
